Overview

As Mardi Gras approaches, the historic streets of Soulard are packed with revelers-and someone is setting its bars on fire.

Fire investigator Jack Mercer recognizes a disturbing pattern hidden within the neighborhood's aging buildings. The fires are carefully planned, designed to spread through concealed passages and structural weaknesses before anyone realizes they were deliberately set. Working alongside homicide sergeant Sarah Delgado and detective Isaiah Brooks, Jack races to identify the arsonist before celebration crowds fill the streets.

Then a third fire reveals something far more sinister: bar manager Danny Rourke, found unconscious inside a locked building with a devastating head injury. When Danny dies, the arson investigation becomes a murder case.

The deeper the investigators dig, the longer their list of suspects grows. A furious former bartender has documented years of safety violations and threatened the businesses. A rival bar owner secretly paid Danny for information. A powerful festival executive fears the discovery of missing money. Preservation records expose forgotten passages beneath the neighborhood-and connections to a tragedy buried eighteen years earlier.

Each suspect has a motive. Each is hiding something. And every new piece of evidence seems to point toward a different killer.

As thousands descend on Soulard for Mardi Gras, Jack and Sarah must separate guilt from deception before the murderer strikes again. But in a neighborhood built upon hidden rooms, altered walls, and old grudges, the truth may be concealed in the one place no one thought to look.

The fires are escalating. The parade is about to begin. And the person responsible is still hiding in plain sight.

Last Call in Soulard is Book 6 in the Jack Mercer Files, a suspenseful murder mystery filled with forensic fire investigation, buried secrets, and twists that will keep readers guessing until the final pages.
